Instructions
- Sauté apples (medium heat) in a large saucepan with 2 T. butter until apples begin to soften.

- Cook for 8-10 minutes or until the vinegar begins to thicken and then remove from heat.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Generously oil a Bundt cake pan and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon to completely cover the bottom and sides of the pan. Set aside.
- Combine eggs, sugar, Tuscan EVOO, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Beat for 2-3 minutes. Slowly add flour, remaining spices, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
- Stir in chopped nuts and cooked apples. Mix until combined.
- Pour into prepared Bundt cake pan. Place in preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes (or until cake tested inserted into the center comes out clean).
- Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let the cake cool upright for 15 minutes. Then tap the pan firmly a few times and shake it gently to help loosen the cake. Place a serving platter on top of the cake pan and carefully flip over (inverting cake onto platter).
